Why Chimu Adventures loves using Xero

In setting up Chimu Adventures, Greg Carter was able to combine work with his passion for travelling.

When Greg Carter co-founded Chimu Adventures 10 years ago, it was born out of a love of travelling and South America.

Now, with offices on the ground in Peru, Argentina and Brazil, Greg spends about three months of the year in South America as well as regularly visiting Antarctica. And, thanks to Xero, he can take his business with him.

At the touch of a button, Greg can pull up the latest statistics or sales data and talk in real time to suppliers on the ground.

“It’s incredible that you can use a product like Xero while on a ship below the Antarctic circle – that you can control your business from such a remote, inhospitable part of the globe,” says Greg.

“Xero really allows me to be free in the way that I can travel and manage a business at the same time.”
